Connor and Erica first met each other during 8th grade graduation. Even though they did not speak one word to each other, that all changed the first day of high school. Connor and Erica shared the same homeroom where they sat next to each other for the next four years and they became good friends. Throughout these four years, Erica and Connor can't deny that they had crushes on each other, but nothing ever came of it. After high school graduation, both went their separate ways to different colleges, but still kept in touch every once in a while. Flash forward to 2017, when Erica reached out to Connor randomly to hangout at Court Jester in Freehold and the rest is history. Now after 5 years of dating, Connor proposed to Erica back at the high school where it all began.
